Description

Advantages of a stacked assembly of target support components for 64Cu production via 64Ni(p,n)64Cu reaction were reported recently. The present work shows the applicability of these composite targets for beam currents up to 22 μA. Gold and platinum foils were evaluated as 64Ni backing. The effective specific activity (ESA) and specific activity (SA) were determined by TETA titration at room temperature and at 80 °C and compared with additional copper quantification results via ICP-MS and stripping voltammetric trace analysis (VA).
